A mental state I use to become present pretty quickly

Well this is good, if it works for you.

But believe me: don't hang on these kind of illusions.

They are really overwhelming when you think about it for the first time, and you might keep it for weeks, even months or years. But it won't last because this is not the truth.

This is an idea that takes the place of the truth, however the truth is not an idea.

I have meditated for some time. I have seen these kind of illusions crawling into my mind, and making me think: this is it, I found it, I feel it.

To be honest, I endured it for several years because the results of these ideas satisfied me enough. But each time they left, a bitter sensation took my mind: I have been fooled again.

If you want to achieve a place that is higher than words, give up on words.

Now, I really am sorry to speak to you like that. I wrote my comment just like I would speak to my person 4 years ago.

If you seek something that is not made of words, sentences won't help you.

Peace, you are on the path.
